Are there superposed Mohos in the south-western Alps? New seismic data from fan-profiling reflections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceThe Moho preserves imprints of the regional geodynamic evolution of the lithosphere. As such, its detailed topography in divergence or convergence zones has a strong bearing on any geodynamic model. This is still more critical where

Moho Depth Disposition of the Contiguous United States: A Multi‐Modal Data Driven Approach

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation
Precise determination of Moho depth is essential for understanding lithospheric deformation, lower crustal rheology, and crust‐mantle interactions. This study employs a Random Forest Regressor (RFR) model to predict Moho depth across the contiguous ...

Crustal Structure in Alaska From Receiver Function Analysis

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
New maps of crustal thickness and Vp/Vs in Alaska and western Canada were obtained using P receiver functions recorded at 198 stations from the USArray Transportable Array and the Alaska Regional Network.

From topography to topography: Surface elevation, Moho geometry and African lithosphere dynamics

open access: yes, 2014
Multi-seismic experiments acquired across the central and southern part of the Iberian Peninsula provide a new insight into the structure and nature of the lithosphere beneath these areas. Normal incidence and wide-angle seismic reflection data acquired in the area resolve the internal architecture and constrain the distribution of the physical ...

Crustal structure of the Colima rift, western Mexico: gravity models revisited [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 1999
Two 250 km and 280 km long gravity transects, across the southern (SCR) and central (CCR) sectors of the Colima rift are reinterpreted. Spectral analysis is used to estimate statistical depths to major interfaces.

Erosion as a driving mechanism of intracontinental mountain growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
In nature, mountains can grow and remain as localized tectonic features over long periods of time (> 10 m.y.). By contrast, according to current knowledge of lithospheric rheology and neglecting surface processes, any intracontinental range with a width ...

A new lithospheric model in the eastern part of the Western Carpatians: 2D integrated modelling

open access: yesContributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2015
Using 2D integrated geophysical modelling we recalculated lithospheric model along transect KP-X in the eastern part of theWestern Carpathians. Our model takes into account the joint interpretation of the heat flow, free air anomalies, topography and ...

The effective elastic thickness of the India Plate from receiver function imaging, gravity anomalies and thermomechanical modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The range and the meaning of the effective elastic thickness (EET) in continental areas have been subject to controversy over the last two decades. Here we take advantage of the new data set from the Hi-CLIMB seismological experiment to re-estimate the ...

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau crustal thickness derived from EGM2008 and CRSUT2.0

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2014
Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the most complex region for crustal thickness inversion, while high-resolution earth gravity model (EGM) makes it possible to obtain high precision gravity anomaly, which is a key parameter to depict the Earth’s inner structure ...
